Found this finally.


Tengo hasta ahi, oh.

Rest stop in Vermont.




Rest stops near the Canadian border are a world apart from those in the southern part of the country.

I guess if you look a certain way (Brown and not very tall)
You don't need clean restrooms(you'll pee in the bushes),
souvenirs(you're coming into this country to make money, not spend it),
maps(you'll find your way even in the dark),
or a nice place to sit and relax a little while(no time to waste, you need to find a job as soon as possible so you can send your family the cash so they won't starve).

Ah! the "american" way of thinking.

I Should have been a hobo.


Plum Island, Massachusetts.

Harvard University.

Harvard University.

Lucas is vandalizing Canada.

Go ouest young man.


Going places is one of the things I enjoy the most in life.
I believe you should go everywhere you ever wanted to go when you were a little kid,even if you end up broke. so far, my list is getting shorter and shorter.
I like that.

Happy Birthday Lucas.


Luca, I don't know if this is going to be around for as long as I want but I sure hope so.
4 years ago on a wednesday, mommy (You used to live in her belly, that's right) woke me up at around 3 a.m and said:
"I think it's time" so I started the preparations(that means I started panicking) so we gathered our stuff, got in the car, and drove off to the hospital.
Got there, checked in, they gave us a room and I started waiting for the big bang.
I wanted to pretend control over the situation so I pulled out my book and started reading (I was so in control that I don't even remember what book it was hahah)
Mommy claimed ownership over the remote and started watching Jerry springer or some other bad show.

Time went by and nothing, guess you were too comfortable in the belly and didn't want to come out.
Finally at around 10 a.m you decided it was time and started finding your way out, when that was over the conductor (Thomas reference for the uncool) handed you over to me and the first thing I said was, "It's a Boy!!!".

Today as you turn 4 I want you to know that ever since that day, I can say that you've made me happier than Disneyland 99% of the time; the other 1% I reserve for those moments when I'm not as patient as I would like to be.
I just hope I won't disappoint you.

I know there will be times later on in our lives when you're gonna think I don't get you and that's ok, I am aware of that, I went through the same thing with Chicho and I still like to watch gole matches with him even if it's just to root for the opposite team.

Having said that, all that's left for me to say is:
Happy Birthday super intendent of the Sodor Railway, I love you with all my heart. I'm just sorry I don't have 2 hearts to love you even more.

Daddy.

Different places, same reaction.

Every time Luca gets tired, or doesn't want to do something. He does this.
So far, I've documented 4 different places, I'm sure I'll find more evidence later, and if I do, You'll see it.

Leon, Guanajuato. Mexico.

Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Mexico.

Ensenada, B.C. Mexico.


MOMA, New York.

Lucas visits the Getty.

So I finally started consolidating all these pictures I've taken of the Luca.
I'm yet to be done with the colossal task but here go some of them.
This time we went to the Getty, and for some reason He kept sticking his tongue out.
The pictures prove it

Father's Day.





Hadn't had such a nice day in a long time.
Thank you.

"Then there was trouble"





That's Lucas' favorite phrase when he's being naughty.
(From Thomas and friends. Just in case you're uncool and don't know.)
